In celebration of the opening of our first West Coast shop, this week’s edition of 5 Friday Scoops centers on a quintet of L.A. things we love—some from the week that was, some from recent visits, and some from years gone by. Here we go: 1) THE TAO OF VAN HALEN, 1978-1984 “I live my life…

The kitchen, bakery, and shipping squads. The accounting, social media, and sales troupes. Jeni has always referred to those who bring the ice cream to life and get it to you, the people, as “rock stars.” So, when we moved the Jeni’s Mothership to a base near the North Market late last year, we knew we…

We’ve got a lot going on these days in Los Angeles. Our Los Feliz shop—our first-ever West Coast spot—will open soon. Stay tuned! But up first this weekend, we’ll be partnering with six Los Angeles-area Whole Foods Market stores to raise a little money for the Whole Planet Foundation and to have a little fun…

1) THIS WINTER SNOPIARY When winter life gives you lemons, don’t bother with lemonade, make a giant snow elephant. That’s what an anonymous snopiary artist did this past week in Goodale Park, near our Short North and North Market scoop shops. 2) THIS WIRED MAGAZINE FEATURE ON THE PRICES OF BETTER RECORDS With winter hanging on, there’s no time…

Check out the entire house makeover featured on Design Sponge. 2) THE FLAVOR THESAURUS First published in 2010, The Flavor Thesaurus teaches the language of flavor, and…

1) DOG PRANCING Every year we watch the contestants in the Westminster Kennel Club’s Annual Dog Show and we can’t believe these prancing, manicured showstoppers are descendants of wolves. Exhibit A: Miss P, the sweet, little 15-inch, four-year-old Canadian beagle who won 2015’s Best in Show on Tuesday in Madison Square Garden. Miss P—who loves sleeping…

1) ALL 141 SNL CAST MEMBERS RANKED If you’re on a Valentine’s date this weekend, don’t miss the limited return of our Bangkok Sundae in all our scoop shops. The gorgeous, plated beauty for two will be served with the two Convo Cookies—waffle cone cookies lined with conversation-starting topics such as “Beatles or Rolling Stones?” and “Silver…

We’re not sure what it is about our scoop shops, but they’ve always been beacons of love. They’ve hosted so many engagement photos and proposals. One even hosted a full-on wedding. And who knows how many first dates have been shared over scoops of Salty Caramel? During Valentine’s weekend we hope to continue the tradition…

This Valentine’s Day, if you’re in the mood to time travel to a white tablecloth restaurant in 1988—and honestly, who isn’t?—I’ve got your Valentine’s Evening meal: Capellini with Cold Smoked Salmon, Capers, and Vodka Cream Sauce. Other than a poet shirt and a pair of Doc Martens, I can’t think of anything that says late ‘80’s more…
